Talk:Jolt (ROTF)

"I will execute hostages every hour until I have guarantees of more screentime. Don't test me!"

Isn't his name actually really "Volt"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GUIGUI (talk • contribs){{#if:| {{{2}}}|}}.

Not according to the Hasbro press packet, if I recall.--Rosicrucian^Talk 18:11, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

Or recent press coverage. --ItsWalky 18:39, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

His name is Jolt. However, he transforms into a Volt. There lies the difference. --Detour 19:54, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

Walmart.com link to Jolt

"Product not found". - Zadok Rox 22:21, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

You should probably remove the link, then. (I wish Starfield hadn't added the links in the first place. They're so fickle.) --ItsWalky 22:58, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

You can stop blaming Starfield, since I was the one who started putting the links around, and was the one who put the link on this page in the first place. --FFN 23:57, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

But he's so blamable! --ItsWalky 01:00, 10 May 2009 (EDT)

Regarding removing links, I thought about it, but then I feared I would foul something up. Next time, I'll be more proactive. Thanks, ItsWalky. - Zadok Rox 22:39, 10 May 2009 (EDT)

Voice

Wasn't there word going around for a while that Anthony Anderson was supposed to be Jolt's voice or did that turn out to be false. (given that Jolt never talks anyway)

Won't know until we see if they add some Jolt scenes back in for the DVD.--Rosicrucian^Talk 12:29, 29 June 2009 (EDT)

Was false, because those same rumours also listed the incorrect credits for Sideswipe and Arcee. Sadly, Variety's review listed this credits for some reason. --FFN 16:02, 29 June 2009 (EDT)

Page Quote

Do we really need a quote for this page? I can understand wanting to have a consistent format, but Jolt doesn't talk at all and the quote from Ratchet doesn't seem informative or interesting. Given his tiny role in the film can't we just leave this page quote-less? (Undecided) 18:15, 15 August 2009 (EDT)

The quote is there because it's an order given to him, and make him do the only thing(up untill now) for what we will remember him by.--Sunjumper 16:01, 23 August 2009 (EDT)

Better image?

How about this one? It's in focus AND his head is in view. CharlieTheUnicorn 15:13, 3 November 2009 (EST)

Chhhhaaaarrrrlllliiiiieeee. There is VERY little visible detail on that image. The one they're using really is the best you're gonna get User:Eire 20.19 Nov 03 09 (UTC)

I think we all died long ago and JOLT is our eternal punishment. CharlieTheUnicorn 15:22, 3 November 2009 (EST)

Lack of Jolt in TF3

Exactly why did they get rid of him? 99.116.253.129 13:18, 9 August 2010 (EDT)

From what I could tell, they forgot he existed while making the second movie. I guess they just didn't bother at all this time. -- Semysane 16:53, 9 August 2010 (EDT)

micheal bay is a giant liar jolt due to being a last minute addition was said to have a large(r) roll in tf3

Image

could i add some jolt photo if you want i can show them and i've got other photoes

The picture you have uploaded under the horribly generic name jolt-2.jpg is already on the page. --Khajidha 14:26, 12 March 2012 (EDT)

ehm sorry but i'm a new user. will the second and the third files be good if i change the name?

The second one is fanart, and the third is muddy to the point of uselessness. Please sign your posts and read your talkpage.--Carrion 15:07, 12 March 2012 (EDT)

Okay, you don't seem to be getting this. The images you have been uploading are either poorly named or duplicate images we already have or both. Then, when they are properly deleted you upload them AGAIN. You also have not been supplying proper credits for these images. You need to STOP uploading images. You need to work on your grammar and spelling and then you need to find some other way to contribute here. Your user page says that you are Italian, maybe you should look into finding the names of Italian voice actors or filling in their bios. Do something, do ANYTHING besides upload more images like this. --Khajidha 15:11, 12 March 2012 (EDT)

ok thank you Khajidha. user:Shockwave1704

Jolt loves nature and saves energy?

According to this: http://www.chevyautobot.com/

Does this count as canon?--Primestar3 (talk) 18:28, 1 November 2020 (EST)

That does not appear to be an official site, sadly. -LV (talk) 22:09, 1 November 2020 (EST)

New mainpic

I am...not at all convinced that is a much better mainpic. The lighting is all off to what it would actually be in the film because it isn't properly rendered, it's a static forward facing shot, and what we had before was much more dynamic. It feels to me like the Rhinox change in pic that we had where that was also an awkward render (although at least there it was properly lit) versus a dynamic pose. I get that it's technically more accurate than the other picture but it feels like a case where that matters less. Escargon (talk) 21:25, 11 May 2022 (EDT)

Yeah, as much as I'm all for a more accurate representation of a character, this isn't a final model at all, his thigh windows are a flat grey, as well as his knee tires and the bulk of his metallic details. This is missing a lot of the finished painted elements that would bring it to life. He just looks "lifeless" for lack of a better word. -- Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 22:06, 11 May 2022 (EDT)

Look, find a better picture of the guy with his actual real head, and I'll think changing it back is a good idea. Yeah, it's lifeless. But for all everyone flips their poop about citogenesis and whatnot, I think maybe it's important that Jolt's mainpic looks like actual Jolt. --ItsWalky (talk) 23:06, 11 May 2022 (EDT)

For whatever it's worth I largely disagree with the whole citogenesis trend. And in any case, I think it's misleading to present this as what Jolt "actually looks like" when it is missing stuff like proper shading and what not. Escargon (talk) 23:47, 11 May 2022 (EDT)

Honestly if "citogenesis" (god I hate that term) is such a concern one could easily say that it's just as much to present an unfinished, unlit model as being the "proper" way a character looks. Escargon (talk) 23:52, 11 May 2022 (EDT)

Bumping this up again because apparently no one saw. Escargon (talk) 20:46, 16 May 2022 (EDT)

Did anybody keep the Studio Series packaging, like a smart person, and not an idiot like me? Because we could scan it. --ItsWalky (talk) 22:26, 16 May 2022 (EDT)

Agreed that it would be a much better replacement pic. Escargon (talk) 22:31, 16 May 2022 (EDT)

Perhaps we could ask Sam, Mark or someone else from Hasbro if they have access to the final model or the full boxart image for us to use? I've seen some of the other full SS art pieces appear online, but they usually have Weibo watermarks through them. -- Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 22:36, 16 May 2022 (EDT)

? --ItsWalky (talk) 13:57, 24 May 2022 (EDT)

Yeah, that works. Escargon (talk) 14:03, 24 May 2022 (EDT)
